I've spent $96 dollars this sale. I think I am going to hold off on it, too.

I honestly thought it was kind of boring. Granted we got it on PSN, not sure that'd make a difference. The system seems very restrictive. The GF also found it boring, and went back to playing Resident Evil 5. I can see why people like it though.

There are loads of "OH SHIT" moments, it's exhilarating, the main character is likeable, the graphics/animation are gorgeous, great voice acting, and high replayability to see what different outcomes your decisions will make.
Oh, and zombies.
Dunno gonna have to wait for someone who's played it.. I've liked all the other telltale offerings.. The walking dead is an interesting setting so there's that. Gameplay wise. No idea. Sorry.

"Alan, wake up." said a voice in my ear. It was Alice. "C'mon, we have to get ready to meet Barry." At first I thought it wasn't real. That all of this was a figment of my imagination and I was simply re-writing reality once again. Alice opened the shades, letting the sunlight shine through. This was real. I had actually prevailed through the darkness. No More Mr. Scratch, no more Taken, no more nightmare. I'm home.
After we got ready, Alice and I set out to meet Barry at a restaurant. He wanted to catch up for all of the lost time. "Alan..." said Alice hesitantly, "where were you all this time? I mean you didn't let anyone know where you were or if you were even alive! I thought you were dead..." "It's kind of a difficult thing to explain" I told her, "I see," said Alice. "I thought I saw you on numerous occasions, but I couldn't bring myself to believe it was you." "Yeah, that wasn't exactly me..." I said hoping she wouldn't raise anymore questions. "It was kind of like my alter ego, or a part of me I tried to repress. Like I said, it's hard to explain." The conversation ended there, as we pulled up to t he restaurant parking lot. There was Barry, standing there with open arms, ready to welcome his best friend.
"Al! How are ya doin?" He says cheerfully "listen, we need to talk about what happened on 'the other side'" "Yeah, yeah I know Barry, but not in front of Alice. We need to make an excuse to leave first." "Okay gotcha, but I wanna know... How did you make it out?" "The same way I got you and Alice out. Kind of." We all proceeded into the diner to catch up over a meal...

I stopped there to meet the deadline. I couldn't really think of anything else and Alan Wake's American Nightmare is my most recently finished game so I went with that.
Okay, I bought a few more things. But now I'm really done! Done, done, done! No more money, Gabe!

I was so happy when I bought Saints Row at Amazon for $9.99. It was $5 cheaper than the steam daily price.
And now this. I think Gaben has priced the franchise pack at $9.79 for committing heresy against the church of Steam.
Sorry oh mighty Gaben, I repent my sins and truly sorry for disbelieving the power of Steam sales.

It makes perfect sense on its own. Its a self contained story that only has cameo from the TV show and comics.

Walking Dead is Telltale's best game and is incredibly tense. I think the TV show is awful and I've never read the comics, but i love the games. The choices and suspense are unmatched.
No worries..I've played them on the iPad so there's that for an immersion factor.
... 
I'm in the same boat. Hated the show, haven't read the comics, but I think it's one of the best adventure games I've ever played in terms of tension and storytelling.

Didn't think I'd be buying anything else, but $9 Saints Row pack was too tempting. The one rare occasion where Australians get a good deal hah.

And we're done!
With xJavonta's entry, we have 10 entries. More than I thought, actually!
I'll get the winners out there as soon as I finish watching this episode of Black Dynamite.Came here to post exactly this. The TV show sucks (though I can definitely see the campy appeal), I've never seen the comics or knew they existed until recently, but the game is glorious.
Yes, those are the last.
That sounds amazing
I just did
Going to get it installed and check it out
Try to plan out 2 hours per episode to finish each in one sitting.

I bought the Walking Dead because people have been saying that they hate zombies and don't care about the show or the comics and love the game.
Good enough for me.
That and one guy said he actually felt bad for getting it on the cheap after playing it.

Holy crap that blows. The one game I was waiting to repeat never did. Only cause I didnt have the money. Damn you Steam. Ah well. 5 dollars isn't anything.

Yes, unless you are interested in one of the community choice games.

Puzzle Dimension is 99p now, great puzzle game, fairly challenging. Has a few flaws but will keep you occupied for a while. That's a really great price, paid £6.99 for it myself.
Can I have my $15 back too if I hate it?

Quick question
In the PC version of Beat Hazard is there anyway to tone down the neon glow effects via graphic options. The girlfriend loves that game, but I could never get into the console version because the brightness would hurt my eyes.
She has contacts, I have 20-20 vision. LOL

I wonder how much money the magic crystals and bad rats guys make from these shitty games? Must be an amazing turn of events for them since they've both been adopted by the internet as joke gifts. Fuckers are laughing all the way to the bank.
